Jenni Murray presents a special edition of the programme for Comic Relief live from Salford. Jenni is joined by a host of comedians including Jo Caulfield, Justin Moorhouse, Katy Brand, Susan Calman, and AL Kennedy in a live comedy special in aid of Red Nose Day from the 91Èȱ¬'s new home in the North, MediaCity UK.
Fresh from her own comedy stage debut, Jenni will be exploring the art of good stand-up, how is a sense of humour defined by our upbringing, and the rights and wrongs of using your family as material in your routine, and we get a fit of the giggles... They say laughter is the best medicine - so how good is it for us to throw back our head and laugh out loud? As well as in-your-face cheeky humour from musical comedy duo, Busting Out.
